Can't set snaktype on DataTypes

[pgrond]

The BaseDataType inhertits from Claim. The documentation states that you can add a property snaktype to the BaseDataType. However, Claim does not have a property named snaktype and so it throws an error TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'snak_type'

Am I missing something or is this a bug in the rewrite? What should the correct way of working be? If this is a bug, can maybe you can give a direction for your proposed solution, so I might be able to help with a fix.

Hello @pgrond
It's more like an outdated docstring in BaseDatatype.
If you want to set the snaktype of a BaseDataType/Claim (I use ExternalID in my example) you can do:

from wikibaseintegrator.datatypes import ExternalID
from wikibaseintegrator.wbi_enums import WikibaseSnakType

externalid = ExternalID()
externalid.mainsnak.snaktype = WikibaseSnakType.NO_VALUE

I'm currently adding typing everywhere (#141) and after this phase I will update the documentation (#209).

Clear, thanks for the explanation.
